Reading Rocks is an individualized virtual reading intervention program designed by Brock University’s Dr. John McNamara, who specializes in Learning Disabilities. This program is designed for students who are performing a minimum of one year behind in the area of literacy due to a diagnosed or suspected reading disability.

In addition to foundational literacy skills, Reading Rocks is an intervention approach that uses motivational tactics to engage children in the reading process. These tactics are designed to actively engage children in their own learning. The motivation tactics are engaged through the use of instructional workstations that tutors design and tailor to each child’s needs.

The Reading Rocks approach is designed to be delivered in a series of 1-hour instructional sessions.

Space is limited and we enroll on a first come first serve basis.

Save  $30 if you enroll by June 8th!
